[QUOTE="dltsrq, post: 7806510, member: 75482"]Unfortunately these days, very few Chinese cash are either obviously fake or obviously genuine. About 10 years ago, I sold my entire accumulation of Chinese cash to a Chinese gentleman living here in the US. He bought just a few pieces at first, which he sent back to China for approval.

There was for some years an eBay seller based in Hong Kong who had an unblemished reputation and was a source for many collections and dealer stocks. Unfortunately, his eBay account has gone silent since the beginning of the 'troubles' in his city. Below is some good advice from dealer Scott Semans who was one of the first to sound the alarm.
